\frametitle{How to make a \underline{stable} system}
Enterprise-grade systems typically employ:
\vspace{1em}
\begin{itemize}
\item RAID
\item Redundant power grid + UPS
\item Redundant Internet connections
\item Low-latency links
\item ...
\end{itemize}
\vspace{1em}
$\to$ it's costly and only worth it at DC scale
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}

Instead, we use:
\vspace{1em}
\begin{itemize}
\item \textcolor<2->{gray}{Commodity hardware (e.g. old desktop PCs)}
\vspace{.5em}
\item<4-> \textcolor<5->{gray}{Commodity Internet (e.g. FTTB, FTTH) and power grid}

\frametitle{Distributed file systems are slow}
File systems are complex, for example:
\vspace{1em}
\begin{itemize}
\item Concurrent modification by several processes
\vspace{1em}
\item Folder hierarchies
\vspace{1em}
\item Other requirements of the POSIX spec
\end{itemize}
\vspace{1em}
Coordination in a distributed system is costly
\vspace{1em}
Costs explode with commodity hardware / Internet connections\\
{\small (we experienced this!)}

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{A simpler solution: object storage}
Only two operations:
\vspace{1em}
\begin{itemize}
\item Put an object at a key
\vspace{1em}
\item Retrieve an object from its key
\end{itemize}
\vspace{1em}
{\footnotesize (and a few others)}
\vspace{1em}
Sufficient for many applications!

MinIO is self-hostable but not suited for geo-distributed deployments

\textbf{Garage is a self-hosted drop-in replacement for the Amazon S3 object store}\\

that implements resilience through geographical redundancy on commodity hardware

\begin{frame}
\frametitle{How to spread files over different cluster nodes?}
\textbf{Issues with consistent hashing:}
\vspace{1em}
\begin{itemize}
\item Doesn't dispatch data based on geographical location of nodes
\vspace{1em}
\item<2-> Geographically aware adaptation, try 1:\\
data quantities not well balanced between nodes
\vspace{1em}
\item<3-> Geographically aware adaptation, try 2:\\
too many reshuffles when adding/removing nodes
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}

\textbf{Garage's method: build an index table}
\vspace{1em}
Realization: we can actually precompute an optimal solution

then propagated to all nodes\\

\frametitle{Garage is \emph{coordination-free}:}
\begin{itemize}
\item No Raft or Paxos
\vspace{1em}
\item Internal data types are CRDTs

\item All nodes are equivalent (no master/leader/index node)

\item Use CRDTs or other eventually consistent data types (see e.g. Bayou)
\vspace{1em}
\item Store opaque binary blobs to provide End-to-End Encryption\\
\end{itemize}
